Emeriti Officers Augusta Thomas, Ken Blaylock blazed path for union, worker rights
WASHINGTON The American Federation of Government Employees mourns the loss of two of our unions beloved former national officers: Augusta Y. Thomas, national vice president for women and fair practices emeritus, and Ken Blaylock, national president emeritus.
Augusta Thomas was an inspiration to everyone who knew her and will be greatly missed by all of her AFGE brothers and sisters. She was a tireless advocate for civil and human rights, and we will make sure that her legacy continues for generations, AFGE National President J. David Cox Sr. said.
Ken Blaylock served as AFGE national president from 1976 to 1988, working to achieve passage of legislation ensuring collective bargaining rights for federal workers. Ken was a visionary who laid the groundwork for building AFGE into the growing, diverse union we are today, Cox said.
